Eskdale & Liddesdale Advertiser search site
« on: Monday 16 July 07 22:06 BST (UK) »
Langholm Archive Centre (see www.langholmarchivecentre.org.uk) have just gone "live" with a search engine of their records from the Langholm local paper, "The Eskdale and Liddesdale Advertiser".

The engine is available at

http://www.langholmarchive.org.uk/

Instructions are on the site on how use to search.

The site has been tested for a few weeks: but there may still be the occasional "wobbly"!

Feedback would be very welcome.
